Everyday Spouse Foundation

Katie was so excited telling her dad about her new boyfriend; “He’s just about perfect, Dad!  He’s good looking, has a great sense of humor and we’ve so many of the same interests.  He’s smart, outgoing and he really cares about me.  I’m so happy!”   “But you said, ‘just about perfect,’ what’s missing?”  “Well, he believes in God, but I don’t know if he has a relationship with Him.”  “Well,” said dad, “Remember when we were looking at buying a house for you and there was one that seemed just about perfect?  The size was great, super landscaping and not only was the outside beautiful but the hard wood floors, tiled kitchen, and every painted room was amazing.  But the foundation was cracked and so it wasn’t an investment you were willing to make.”  

When looking for a spouse the best blueprint to follow is found in Ephesians 2:20 finding someone whose foundation is built with Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone so you can build a strong marriage…everyday.
